Temperament can shape patterns of individual differences in animal cognition and behaviour. An influential hypothesis proposes that bolder and more exploratory individuals are less cognitively flexible than shy individuals. However, there i...

Map and compass navigation, a two-step process in which animals use a map to determine goalward directions and a compass to orient in those directions, accounts for a variety of navigational behaviours across animals, from visual landmark n...
Neural networks reveal emergent properties of collective learning in democratic but not despotic groups [0.03%]

Collective learning, the improvement of behaviours through experience of collective actions, is an area of animal learning that has received little attention to date. We investigated how individual learning during collective actions could p...
Experimental manipulation of population density in a wild bird alters social structure but not patch discovery rate [0.03%]

Population density is a fundamental ecological feature influencing the opportunity for social encounters between individuals. Hence, density can impact various population processes such as social transmission. While the density dependence o...
Trade-offs between sociality and gastrointestinal parasite infection in the context of a natural disaster [0.03%]

Parasites and infectious diseases constitute important challenges particularly for group-living animals. Social contact and shared space can both increase parasite transmission risk, while individual differences in social capital can help p...
Temperature affects conspecific and heterospecific mating rates in Drosophila [0.03%]

Behavioural mating choices and mating success are important factors in the development of reproductive isolation during speciation. Environmental conditions, especially temperature, can affect these key traits. Environmental conditions can ...
Female song elicits increased vocal display effort in both sexes of Alston's singing mouse [0.03%]

Acoustic displays are conspicuous behaviours common across diverse animal taxa. They have long been studied in behavioural ecology, evolutionary biology and neuroscience. Most of these investigations, however, have focused on male display. ...
Selective social tolerance drives differentiated relationships among wild female chimpanzees [0.03%]
选择性的社会容忍度促使野生雌性黑猩猩之间形成差异化的亲密关系

Strong, affiliative bonds often function to facilitate social competition through cooperative defence of resources, but the benefits of social bonds may be low when direct competition is less intense or less beneficial. In such cases, one p...
Associations between social behaviour and proinflammatory immune activation are modulated by age in a free-ranging primate population [0.03%]
社会行为与促炎症免疫激活在非人灵长类动物中的关系受年龄影响

The effect of the social environment on the proinflammatory immune response may mediate the relationship between social environment and fitness but remains understudied outside captive animals and human populations. Age can also influence b...
Chemical cues of conspecific predation elicit distinct behavioural responses in cannibalistic poison frog tadpoles [0.03%]
同类捕食诱导有毒鸣 frogs蝌蚪产生不同的行为反应化学信号

In cannibalistic species, conspecifics can be both predators and prey. As a result, conspecifics present a unique conflict at the intersection of predation, competition and nutritional resources in these species. To better understand how in...
